Siop Gwynedd one-stop-shop closed

Date: 23/03/2020

All three of Gwynedd Council’s Siop Gwynedd one-stop-shops - at Caernarfon, Dolgellau and Pwllheli along with the reception area at the Council’s Penrallt offices in Caernarfon – are now closed for an unspecified period of time.

This is to ensure the health and safety of the public and staff due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Services and information

Many Gwynedd Council services are available online, and we would urge people who require information or services to please visit our website www.gwynedd.llyw.cymru/MyAccount or use the Gwynedd App (which can be downloaded from the Apple App Store and Google Playstore) first.

If you can’t find the information you need online, please call the Council’s Galw Gwynedd Contact Centre on 01766 771000. We would advise members of the public that we are currently experiencing a greater volume of calls than usual, coupled with a reduced staff capacity because of the effects of the virus, resulting in a far longer waiting time.

We are grateful for your patience at this difficult time.
